SDK for touchless gesturing on Android smartphones : CES 2014 News - Elliptic Labs, the leader in ultrasonic touchless gesturing, brings the first SDK for touchless gesturing on Android smartphones using ultrasound to the US with a hands-on demo at CES 2014. Visitors to CES Show in Las Vegas on January 7-10 will have a chance to try out the technology live on a Android smartphone at the Murata booth #36231 - South Hall 4. “Elliptic Labs delivers touchless gesturing in a natural way all around the screen of a smartphone, tablet or laptop at 180 degrees, using the movements you use in daily life. With our SDK, we are giving smartphone manufacturers a way to easily include touchless gesturing in their smart devices,” said Laila Danielsen, CEO, Elliptic Labs.

Android Smartphone interaction
“Elliptic Labs transforms touchless gesturing into a whole new platform with a more natural, human style of interaction. It enhances the way you interact with your favorite applications, such as browsing through pictures, social media and mobile games like 'Fruit Ninja' or 'Subway Surfer', it uses little power, and works in low light or in the dark. With our high resolution, you will have an accurate, consistent touchless gesturing experience anywhere. We expect our ultrasonic touchless gesturing technology to be available on Android smartphones soon.”

Ultrasonic Touchless Gesturing
Elliptic Labs’ technology differs from any other touchless gesturing technology in the market because it uses sound waves to detect movements, not cameras or infra-red. With ultrasound, 3D gestures can be made all around a device providing a clear view of the screen, without a user’s hand covering the screen display or having to work hard to find the exact point to hover over. It is the only solution in the market that can deliver 3D touchless gesturing at 180 degrees all around the screen of a smartphone or tablet.
